Alex “Sasha” Chepurko
Exposed a $100 Million Biofuels Scam
At just 21 years old, Alex “Sasha” Chepurko exposed a $100 million biofuels scam—becoming one of the youngest whistleblowers to take on a major fraud scheme.
While working for Caravan Trading, Chepurko discovered the company was selling finished biodiesel to e-Biofuels, which then falsified paperwork to claim it had manufactured the fuel and collect government tax credits and EPA renewable fuel incentives.
After secretly recording his boss admitting the fraud, Chepurko filed claims under three separate whistleblower programs—the False Claims Act, the SEC whistleblower program, and the IRS whistleblower statute—making his case the first known to use all three simultaneously.
His disclosures landed six conspirators in prison (including the mastermind, who received a 20-year sentence) and resulted in a $69.6 million judgment for the United States, marking Indiana’s largest environmental and securities fraud case in history.
